Default Del Sol 94' Body Kit?

Hello Everyone,

this is my first post at H-tech.

thanx


-Stacey

None, really. I'd suggest getting a front and rear urethane/OEM lips and OEM sideskirts, it will look much cleaner IMO..

if you get a body kit you are most likely going to kick yourself down the road for have a f&f ricer phase.

Bodykits will get you flamed and critisized against.
True it is your car, do what you want.
I would suggest OEM front lip, sideskirts and rear lip.
Keep it clean.

x2 on keeping it clean

100% of every body kit that i've ever seen (i'm talking body kit like black widow and blitz, i don't throw things like the Mugen Aero Kits or even Veilside kits for supras and what not into that category even though they technically are "body kits") ends up fitting like crap and after a year of driving looks even more like crap then it did in the first place.

You can save alot of time/money/headache into keeping a simple OEM look while not attracting much more unneeded/unwanted attention from the wrong people, like police and thieves.

Whatever your decision, good luck and welcome.

Just keep things clean looking, not necessarily JDM.

They pretty much bolt right in, some companies will give you double-sided tape too to help them stay on good.

Besides the gold sol posted above, which I believe is Rare EG2's, I've never seen a del sol look good with just a lip. simple body kit is way to go IMO. I'm doing a EG front swap with spoon front lip buddy club sides and rear.

over 1900 pages of good looking del sols with lips on this thread: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1762981

san diego has been a huge let down on body kitted del sols, I hope yours changes that image.

You forgot 850+ pages of the old thread.


Stacey, keep it simple and clean and you'll thank us later.

Yes keep it simple, I have that ebay front lip on my 97 del sol bumper, its very snug and takes some stretching
It takes some working to have it fit the 93-95 bumpers as well

Good luck
